What's Hot

Excellent functionality, packed with features, fantastic value

What's Not

No time shift buffer, single tuner only, no HD reception

The Final Word

More manufacturers should be following Panasonic's example with the DMR-EX85. A truly outstanding product, the omission of a time shift buffer is the only feature preventing this unit from being a near-perfect purchase.
